The suggestive name, "Doctoring

version of the title, used for another
purpose,-'Old Time Doctoring."
We learn, through q reliable source,
that one of the enterprising proprietary
medicine firms Of the country has been
for years investigating the formulas
and medicinal preparations used in the
beginning Of this century, and even be.

They now think they have secured the

Continual trespass upon the forest do

civilization, until they have been dis
carded, as remedial agents because of
the difficulty of obtaining them.
Fl. II. Warner, proprietor Of War
ner's safe cure, and founder of the
Warmers observatory, Rochester, n.
Y, has been pressing investigations IN
this direction, into the annals OF old
family histories, until he has secured
some very valuable formulas from
which his firm is now preparing medi-
cines, to be sold by all druggists.
They will, we learn, be known under
the general title of "Warner's Log

cines will lie a ''Sarsaparilla" for the
blood and liver, LOG Cabin Hops and

beginning. Although they come IN
the form Of proprietary medicines. yet
they will be none the less welcome. fol-
suffering humanity has become tired OF
modern doctoring and the public has
great confidence IN any remedies put ny

the head. The people have become
suspicious Of the effects of doctoring
with poisonous drugs. Few realize the
injurious effects following the prescrip.
lions of many modern physicians. These
effects of poisonous drugs, already
prominent, will become more pro-
nounced In coming generations. There
